    Laboure College

    SailorVee93 replied to TREndzetta's topic in Massachusetts Nursing

    All I can say about the program from what I've read and what I've heard is that it is disorganized and overpriced for an ADN program. Again this is what I've gathered from other students and not my...

    Job and salary outlook for a new grad with an associate degree?

    SailorVee93 replied to somethingsodistant's topic in Massachusetts Nursing

    There are still some Boston area hospitals that will hire ADN grads. I know of three in particular that hire them (1 or 2 that won't rush you to get your BSN). I won't post the names here out of...

    Transfer students into BSN or associates program

    SailorVee93 replied to MallyGirl's topic in Massachusetts Nursing

    In addition to the suggested schools, I think you should look into UMASS Boston and Salem State. If you get into UMASS, it takes about 2.5 to 4 years for you to complete the program depending on the...

    UMass Boston Application Check

    SailorVee93 replied to mjo07's topic in Massachusetts Nursing

    That has no meaning. It's just stating what you applied for. You won't know if you've been rejected or accepted until you receive the decision letter. This year they also changed their application...

    MCPHS Fall 2013

    SailorVee93 replied to Bcdawber's topic in Massachusetts Nursing

    If you don't mind me asking, how was the application process for the both of you??? (Who did you ask to write your recommendation letters?) Is it possible to still apply if only one pre-req hasn't...

    ADN vs. BSN in Boston

    SailorVee93 replied to slucas's topic in Massachusetts Nursing

    There are some hospitals that will hire ADN grads, you just have to be willing to look hard. A friend of mine works with a lot of ADN nurses at one particular hospital and everyone gets along fine....

    Salem State University Fall 2012 BSN program

    SailorVee93 replied to maz357's topic in Massachusetts Nursing

    SailorVee93 replied to maz357's topic in Massachusetts Nursing

    Thank you CapeCodDreamer!!! If Salem and other nursing schools (Associate or Bachelors) are looking for medical students, then I believe they are looking in the wrong location or need to change their...

    Salem State University Fall 2012 BSN program

    SailorVee93 replied to maz357's topic in Massachusetts Nursing

    One thing I've learned with this website: you're never alone... I feel the same way (about nursing criteria). It seems you really have to be an A student to get in, but the best students in my opinion...
